The Bertram 540 Is Different Inside

The Bertram 540 convertible is different: the settee is forward, there are three windshields across the front of the salon to let in lots of light, and the galley is aft with a view of the cockpit and that 40-knot wake.

In the last issue, if you’ll recall, Capt. Steve took us offshore for his test of
the Bertram 540 convertible. This week he takes us inside the 540 to show us what
Bertram has done differently there – and there is quite a bit! Bertram has banished
the dark, claustrophobic cave-like feeling that many convertibles have, and has
let the sunshine in across the front of their salon. They have also moved the galley
aft so the cook can see the cockpit action and pass sandwiches out the window. Bertram
has remembered what the word “convertible” means – as in it “converts” to either
cruising or fishing. To see all of this and more and to get Capt. Steve’s take on the
new Bertram 540 -- bait your mouse
